All went well until It got to a point in newfs:

devitnew#
disklabel -Brw dadevitnew# disklabel -Brw da0 auto

Then newfs:
/dev/da0: 1000000.0MB (2048000000 sectors) block size 16384, fragment
size 2048        using 5442 cylinder groups of 183.77MB, 11761 blks,
23552 inodes.super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at:160, 376512, 752864,
1129216, 1505568, 1881920, 2258272, 2634624, 3010976,
=2E..
=2E..

 120432800, 120809152, 121185504, 121561856, 121938208, 122314560,
122690912,
 123067264, 123443616, 123819968, 124196320, 124572672, 124949024,

Then newfs hung, ^C etc didn't kill it, disk is showing as idle in
systat etc.
Just issued a reboot to see if it will come back.
UPDATE: it has rebooted fine, presumably because it wasn't mounted.

Thanks,
Joe
